writing!

                                                          Growing up as a writer

    Last year when our principal came to talk to our whole junior class, and asked who wanted to attend the local community college ICC for their senior year. I thought to myself there is no way I could ever go there my skills are much to low. I knew it was an opportunity of a lifetime though.  What could be better getting two years done in one…especially because I knew what I wanted to do with my life.

 I knew I could get my gen. ed l classes I needed done at ICC then go straight to where I wanted, but there was still that one thing holding me back my skills. I knew I didn’t know much in English only because we could never keep a teacher their. We always hired the young ones and our students would run them off. My mom talked it over with me, and I decided to take the chance. I signed up for my classes not knowing what I was getting myself into.

I am so glad I took the opportunity because I have learned so much in my English class, so much more then I would have learned at my high school. I feel so much more prepared. I am able to feel confident when I write my papers. You have taught me all the different ways or writing, how to set up your papers, and many more things. I can’t wait to learn more things in class, so I am well prepared for English 110.

  2. Ladies, I think every student should take 105. You are so much better prepared for the demands of 110...

    Logan, you have an amazing opportunity at Midland. I'm proud of you for taking a risk.
